Excellent

Fabulous tour and host - Kylie was passionate about the arts and this transcended to the group. Fantastic information given with enthusiasm which made the 3 hour tour fly by! From booking to meeting point, there was great communication from the company. So worth paying for the easy access into the Vatican, the brilliant tour and guide. Would highly recommended this tour

In spite of the fact that the Vatican was packed with other tours our tour guide was able to make it feel personal for us and guide us through the maze of people.
